My fiance and I were thinking on my side there would be a maid of honor and 3 maids. On the groom's side there would be a best man and one groomsman. Then we were thinking that the 2 extra maids could walk each other down the aisle. What do you think?

Go with what makes you and your fiance happy. You don't 'have' to be even. You have chosen the girls and guys that mean the most to you and this will make your day more memorable than it being equal. As for walking down the aisle you could have each guy take two girls or like some of the above posts have them walk separately. Whatever you decide will be perfect because it's your day. Congratulations and best of luck!

There is nothing wrong with an uneven number. If you worried about how they will walking down the aisle, the groomsmen don't have to walk the bridesmaids down the aisle. The bridesmaids can walk down the aisle by themselves and the groomsmen can walk in with the groom. If you want the 2 groomsmen the walk the bridesmaids down the aisle you can either, like you said, have the 2 extra bridesmaids walk together or have them walk down one at a time by themselves. Good Luck! I hope it all works out for you.

I think there is really no right or wrong way. My daughter is getting married in 3 months and has an uneven number of attendants.A maid & 4 brides and he has 2 best men and 5 groomsmen. The maid is walking with the 2 best men, &one brides will be walking with 2 gromsmen. Good luck whatever you decide it will be fine.

that's no longer needed . in reality I extremely have attended some weddings the place there has been diverse numbers on the two area. you relatively do no longer ought to have any attendants , as long as you have a million/2 witnesses as required by utilising the regulation the place you reside. in case you do have those attendants - then the less which you have - the less demanding/ extra value-effective that's to organise clothing , etc. traditionally bridesmaids might organize ''showers'' for the bride, help her get waiting on the day, help with issues that could desire doing beforehand of the marriage ( writing invites; preparing favours). traditionally the bridesmaids could be dressed apart from the bride & encompass her to guard her from all of us who might oppose the marriage. The groomsmen achieved an identical place for the groom- making specific he grow to be waiting & on the rite venue on time. in the previous some royal weddings have had a million/2 groomsmen ; no bridesmaids & numerous flower ladies / website boys

Yep, I've seen plenty of weddings with an unequal number of bridesmaids & groomsmen. Usually one person gets an extra partner and they walk down as a threesome. But in this case, I think it's fine to have the two maids escort each other. Or just have everyone walk separately so it's not so obvious - have all the men go in, and then each maid walks down by herself and gets her moment to shine before the entrance of the bride.

When one of our groomsmen DID NOT SHOW UP...we totally improvised. One of the groomsmen who did show up walked two of the bridesmaids down the aisle...everyone loved it, especially the groomsman who got the two gals. The pictures were fantastic and no one really knew what had happened. In the end, do what you want...it is your wedding and no matter what everything will work out fine!

I think that sounds fine. I dont think there is a law that states you have to have a groomsmen for every bridesmaid. the important thing is that the people that matter most are up there with you and you dont want to have just any old john doe up there to make it "look nice" and you're certainly not going to cut anyone out to make it look even. No, just stick to your idea, it will be great.

I have seen weddings with more bridesmaids than groomsmen. The extra ladies walked individually down the asile not together.

The 2 extra maids should walk separate if you decide to go this way, walking together might be weird. Good Luck

I think you can do whatever you want to do to make your wedding the kind of celebration that you both want it to be.
Tradition and etiquette are just someone elses ideas of how to organise a party. Do it your way ....and have a great time!
